Song Jin-woo (journalist)

In 1945, he was assassinated by Han Hyeon-woo [ko], a member of the far-right terrorist group the White Shirts Society.He was the fourth son of father Song Hun (송훈; 宋壎), and mother (surname Yang 양; 梁).He was eventually released in February 1927 due to a clemency order issued in celebration of the beginning of Emperor Hirohito's reign.[3] In August 1936, the Ilbo was discontinued for a fourth time, after it was revealed that it had doctored a photo to remove the Japanese flag from the chest of Sohn Kee-chung, a competitor in the Berlin Olympics.Frustrated by his inability to speak out against this, Song privately wrote that "The Dong-a Ilbo is my mouth, my ears, my breathing nose, my hands, and my feet.The security office had three Korean candidates that they felt who could handle their work: Song, Lyuh Woon-hyung, and Ahn Chai-hong.According to historian Son Sae-il [ko], Song viewed the position as being akin to the role of Wang Jingwei in the Japanese puppet state.Afterwards, the United States and Soviet Union announced that they had failed to negotiate the reunification of Korea and that the peninsula would be occupied for 5 years.On the evening of 29 December, Song and members of the Korean Provisional Government held a furious meeting on the results of the conference.
